2017 Fiat Swift 2.3L Diesel · CU67 EDR

The 2017 Fiat Swift presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 February 2026 at 60,680 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 18 February 2025 at 51,533 miles confirms the vehicle has cleared consecutive annual examinations without advisories or mechanical faults. Annual mileage sits at a modest 6,742 miles against the vehicle's nine-year life, reflecting light use. The records show 26,123 miles at the March 2023 test, rising to 39,017 by March 2024, then 51,531 at the February 2025 failure and 51,533 the next day on retest, reaching 60,680 by February 2026. A one-day fail on 17 February 2025 at 51,531 miles with no defects logged points to an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a worn component, corrected immediately on 18 February 2025. The sparse, clean history gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers given the low annual mileage may have allowed the car long periods stationary, a known cause of seized brakes and surface corrosion on structural members. The absence of recorded advisories across five tests means no recurring wear pattern exists to track, but the 2025 one-day failure with zero defects warrants a check of the DVSA refusal reason to rule out a documentation mismatch. Pre-purchase checks should target underside structural integrity and exhaust emissions, as nine years of mixed use can hide rust inside box sections not visible during a road test. The clean MOT trail suggests the previous keeper maintained basic upkeep, yet low mileage alone does not certify drivetrain health without a workshop appraisal.
